Just watched film thread

I always had the opinion tha Platoon had a sort of "stuff you, I've been there and know better" attitude about it which was fair enough but slightly alienating at the same time, I still really enjoy this movie but not as much as Apoc Now or FMJ.

Never seen Hamburger Hill either, my dad use to go on about it but never got round to watching...let me know what you make of it Steve mate.

Just watched a couple of eps of Extras again...it gets better the more you watch it I think.

I watched casualties of war about a year ago but I thought that was pretty crap...sean penn overacting, j fox trying his best to break free of his teen look...it was quite brutal but I really don't like brian de palma's films.

YEa i just watched Hamburger Hill - its ok, not great - not as good as FMJ/Apocylipse now

Another good war film is to End all Days - not Nam though, but very cool and has kiefer sutherland in

Just watched the Squid and the Whale...been wanting to see this ever since I read about it at sundance...

Wes Anderson produced it and it was good viewing...uncomfortable 80 minute look at the life of a well off brooklyn family.
Jeff Daniels and laura Linney were both excellent as the 2 intellectual parents who try their best to manipulate their 2 sons.

Odd little film but worthy of the time of any fan of modern american independent cinema.

It'll be worth it just to see Audrey Tautou again

Empire gave the film 2 stars, imdb has it at 6.2 though. Surely it can't be that bad.
